I took five Deaf persons to the Licensing Office to do their regulations test then get their learners. We got there after lunch as I had done with the previous group, and waited for about two (2) hours before we were told that afternoons are a bit of an inconvenience to do regulations since they're normally done during the morning period. So I arranged to go again on the following Monday.
No fuss. No stress. I was happy that they all took it well. There was a bit of disappointment but their overall reaction was calm and collective. Praise God. I always try to be mindful not to transmit a nervous, angry, impatient demeanour because I know that this could be easily transferred. I try to maintain a peace and contentment so that they too could remain calm even in trying situations. I thank God that He was gracious with us and that he continues to hold us and keep us.
That afternoon we meet Ian. He had returned from the missionary trip to Belize the previous day and he eagerly told us about his experience. If you want to know more about the Deaf in Belize I have added a link to Nancy's blog on my blog. Nancy is the woman who facilitated Ian while he was in Belize. I know this 10 day trip was a blessing to Nancy and the Deaf in Belize as well as Ian! Hasn't God also kept them? He sure did and continues to.
Well we also tried to figure out the signs for a song we were to minister with over the following weeks - Lord you're Holy by Helen Baylor. I'm not sure how productive that was lol. Yet it's amazing how they never worry nor do I and even when one worries the other encourages. God keeps us...no doubt about that!
